LINKED WEBSITES
“FPI” provides access to information, services, and products through websites that are owned or operated by other companies (“third party websites”). We have carefully chosen a number of other companies to provide information, services, and products, in hopes of bringing you the value and service you expect from “FPI”. You can identify that you are at a third party’s website instead of “FPI”’s when you have used a hyperlink which takes you to a new location, and the website address of the linked site appears in the “address” box at the top of your browser, or when a new browser window is opened, in which the new third party website appears. We have done our best to provide you with information, services, and products from trustworthy third party companies; however, “FPI” cannot endorse, approve, or guarantee information, products, services, or recommendations provided at any third party’s web site. It is provided solely for convenience purposes. Because we may not always know when information on a third party site changes, “FPI” is not responsible for the content or accuracy of any third party website. “FPI” will not be responsible for loss or damage of any sort resulting from the use of a third party web link, nor will it be liable for any failure of products or services advertised or provided on these third parties’ sites. When you visit a third party website by using a hyperlink from the “FPI” site, our Privacy Policy will no longer protect you. The data collection, use, and protection provided by the linked site may differ from those at “FPI”. You should familiarize yourself with the privacy policy and security practices of any third party linked site you visit. Those are the policies and practices that will apply to your use of the third party linked site, NOT “FPI”’s policies and practices. Because the privacy and information security practices may be different than “FPI’s”, you may be at greater risk to computer viruses, malicious code, or other defects in web sites that may affect your computer.
